City flags fly at half-mast

Flags on city buildings across Cambridge will dip to half-mast this weekend as part of the community’s Remembrance Day activities.

The flags will drop at city hall, the city works yard, all community centres and parks, as well as fire stations today and will remain lowered over the weekend.

Three ceremonies will take place in the City of Cambridge. Wreath laying ceremonies will happen Sunday at Galt’s Queen’s Square cenotaph at 10:45 a.m.; Preston cenotaph in Central Park at 10:40 a.m., and at the cenotaph at Hespeler’s Old Town Hall, at 10:30 a.m.

Cambridge Libraries and Galleries will be opening the Hespeler and Queen’s Square locations at 10 a.m. on Remembrance Day. The public is invited to view displays and enjoy refreshments before and after the Remembrance Day Services.
